SERVPRO is Here to Reverse the Effects of Flood Damage on Your Home

You might not realize this, but your Farmington home is not ready for potential severe weather and natural disasters. Even with those that take significant steps with preventative measures for the possibilities that exist for disasters like flooding and storm damages, there are often too many variables to completely protect your home. Furthermore, as your home ages, many of these preventative measures age and fail to be as effective as they once had been.

The result can be flood damage to your Farmington home, which can be an overwhelming and traumatic event for your entire family. It is especially painful if the affected area is home to many of your keepsakes and essential items you had stored. High volumes of water can threaten valuable contents in your house. When you are facing a water emergency like this, SERVPRO is going to be there to help.

Our team works quickly to prevent the problem from getting worse by focusing on extraction. Using pump trucks from our fleet or a combination of portable pumps and vacuums, our team pulls water from the flooded area as expediently as possible. Getting rid of the pooled liquid can keep structural elements that are currently unaffected from being weakened by the expanding water reaching new areas.

Drying is an essential aspect of our restoration process. The SERVPRO team uses a combination of air movers and dehumidification equipment to dry out all of the remaining moisture thoroughly. Thermal imagery can show the technicians areas they cannot see to better visualize the extent of the water damage and the success of the drying efforts.

Locating the source of the flooding is also a critical component to the restoration process, as this prevents future incidents of a similar nature. Repairs can occur on site for vulnerable foundations and cracks or holes that get identified through this inspection. Sealing up weak points in the foundation with hydraulic cement can keep further water from getting in and protect your home through the next severe weather event.

Flood damage might seem overwhelming and costly, but with our IICRC industry certified technicians, you can trust that your home can get restored back to the way it used to be. If you are amid a water emergency, call SERVPRO of Burnsville / Lakeville today at (952) 846-4400.
